Check Rockauto. I replaced my brakes about 2 years ago with Dynamic Friction Geospec coated rotors and Bosch quiet cast pads. Still in great condition and stops on a dime.

Pros: great condition, stops well

I swear by Bosch quietcast. I’ve done cheap brands before but seem to squeak, fade, or make too much dust.

Pros: quiet, less dust
Cons: squeak, fade

TRW Brake pads

If you want comfort, use an OE supplier (TRW, Textar, pagid), if you want more performance at the cost of some added noise/dust, Ferodo/hawk/EBC

Pros: comfort with OE supplier
Cons: noise/dust with performance brands

TRW Brake pads

When I bought one of my cars used I immediately noticee the brakes felt horrible. As in they didnt feel like they wanted to stop. Its almost like when your slowing down and coming up on the car infront you expect your car to slow down faster than it is right now. So you oush down harder and harder and you get maybe 10% more braking.  Yeah. Swapped those pads out for some street performance pads. Night and day difference. The brakes actually work now. Good initial bite and good modulation.

Pros: Good initial bite
Cons: brakes felt horrible

I get this too since I replaced pads and rotors (Bosch Quietcast pads/Zimmermann rotors). To me, it's more of a click than a clunk.

Cons: click or clunk

I recently replaced all the brake pads on my 2020 brz performance package, and it now squeals way more than before and has a noticeable clunk when pressing the brake pedal especially after reversing. I got Bosch Ceramic QuietCast pads from Rockauto, used ceramic lubricant on the back of the pads and all contact surfaces, and silicone lubricant on the pins. Once I apply a good amount of pressure to the brakes, they're very quiet for awhile but eventually start squealing again. Also I did do the bedding process and it didn't change anything, plus that wouldn't stop the clunking.

Pros: quiet under pressure (initially)
Cons: squeals, clunking noise
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ
